#

anyone know if you can use the azerite power finder on wowhead without taking into account the new ring that will be added "soon"?

#

Cause all azerite you can find on there now has the extra rings on it

gaunt dawn
#

Hi

#

What's up?

#

Parry has a Dr on the rate of return from the rating

#

You can parry streak with enough stat or luck or both

sick sentinel
#

okay, thank you 😄

gaunt dawn
#

People misuse the term DR alot

#

What they mean is Diminishing rate of return

#

I assume that's what you tagged me for @sick sentinel ?

sick sentinel
#

panthea

#

teachme

#

everything you know

gaunt dawn
#

Sounds like someone wants to be a high tier patron

sick sentinel
#

just what Kage screenshotted

gaunt dawn
#

Patreon link in the top banner of TankNotes xo

sick sentinel
#

i'm not doing that

#

sorry skinner

#

I don't know what tanknotes is

#

I don't want to be taught the class I just wanna theorycraft

#

i just wanna TC

cosmic cargo
#

that guy is an idiot

#

there's no such thing as x amounts of parry per minute or w.e

sick sentinel
#

sounds to me like

#

after you parry

cosmic cargo
#

if you have 100% parry change

sick sentinel
#

for a certain amount of time

#

your parry stat is less effective

cosmic cargo
#

you straight up have 100% parry chance

sick sentinel
#

ye but you might not parry the next one

cosmic cargo
#

that's not a thing weep

#

at all

sick sentinel
#

I'm just piecing from what the tanknotes boy said

hot locust
#

@sick sentinel you do not have any less chance of parrying the next attack after parrying the previous.

cosmic cargo
#

each parry roll is completely independant

sick sentinel
#

then what's he saying about dr

#

🤔

hot locust
#

No

#

He's saying that as your parry stat increases, you get less parry chance per point of the stat.

sick sentinel
#

ah

#

diminishing returns of the parry stat itself

#

not the chance to parry

hot locust
#

Correct

sick sentinel
#

thank you

cosmic cargo
#

but what the guy said on the screenshot was a bunch of BS

sick sentinel
#

o yea

#

I knew that

marble cipher
#

tanknotes down by any chance?

cosmic cargo
#

and i still don't get why would parry have that much to do with dhs 🤔

marble cipher
#

Or it's just my work proxy acting up cause it's possibly meta tagged with "gaming" category

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

cosmic cargo
#

they only have 15% extra during demon spikes

sick sentinel
#

not down

marble cipher
#

then it's the proxy again

sick sentinel
#

fwiw

marble cipher
#

but sure, wowhead can pass through the proxy 🤣

sick sentinel
marble cipher
#

oh, that's pretty useful, thanks

sick sentinel
#

np

#

it isn't a proxy per se

#

but it works well on static websites

#

it saves the current webpage

#

doesn't work with flash or stuff like that

marble cipher
#

meh, doesn't seem to work either (can't browse correctly, stuff not being loaded), but it's fine, I'll just check some stuff on phone in stead

sick sentinel
#

sorry 😦

marble cipher
#

By the way for what it's worth, tanknotes still states spell reflect is usable on growths 😉

#

Damn blizz devs for fixing this fun! 😄

Seems to be the common thing now

Join a guild, watch it die

#

Join another and watch it die

#

It's all these small no name guilds though

hollow thorn
#

the guild i joined havnt died yet, but we havnt killde ghuun since i joined

primal crypt
#

Only two weeks to go

hollow thorn
#

Like we havnt tried

primal crypt

Imagine if any of those small no name guild leaders ever asked for advice

#

I've helped a few personally

#

Mostly cos friends are in them and they ask me for help

violet zodiac
#

I need HELP

gaunt dawn

If you don't explain your problem

Nobody can help

0 pulls?

carmine wadi
#

My best friend has cancer and he´s 24 years old!.....

marble cipher

Why, cause lack of locks?

primal crypt

Putting you on ignore now, thanks for the fun! Hope you live :)

hollow thorn

Yup

marble cipher
#

how many you got?

Like 1 alt lmao

vocal nimbus

KEK

carmine wadi
#

We thought it´s gone and his parents were lucky and now after christmas he got the message that it´s back.

marble cipher
#

two is enough to warant pulls, not ideal, but should be enough to at least get some pulls going

#

a guild, with one lock, what is this!! 😄

#

What guild are you in by the way?

hollow thorn
#

Ill gear my 370 wlock if i have to

marble cipher
#

nvm, found you, realm rank 17, where did all the locks go?!

tight tree
#

I am cancer survivor and i do cancer jokes pretty often tbh. Shit will destroy your sanity unless you learn to laugh at it. But that was my way of coping, to each their own. I guess it is not so funny to relatives and loved ones at the very least.

#

I have no hope od downing ghuun 😦 Was obvious from 1st pulls that we dont have nearly enough DPS and coordination

marble cipher
#

It's a tedious fight if coordination is not on point, true there

dense cradle
#

ghuun isnt a dps check tho

#

anymore at least

primal crypt
marble cipher
#

Don't remember how many pulls we had before getting CE, but, it was quite a lot

dense cradle
#

hes hard for a first raid tier boss

tight tree
#

Its just too late at this point, feels like new raid like tomorrow already

dense cradle
#

but not hard of an endboss imo

marble cipher
#

Most annoying thing mainly is the need for X amount of Y class to make the fight a lot easier

dense cradle
#

they learned from tomb clearly

marble cipher
#

Mainly looking at lock portals and solo capable runners (even though quite a few can solo run)

tight tree
#

For a bunch of weebs, our DPS not paying nearly enough attention to tentacles imo. THey destroying us 😉

empty terrace
#

He was hard before the nerfs thats true

dense cradle
#

is it that hard to have your kick bound

tight tree
#

Dont ask me. I am highest interrupts amount for all our pulls, and i am a tank.

marble cipher
#

Thing is, on mythic, people actually need to do mechanics or it's a non-kill, if they don't get that (dps, tanks, healers, don't care), they don't belong in mythic.

dense cradle
#

sometimes i wonder why higher end pvpers think pve takes no skill

#

then you have people like this

#

i'd say avatar was a harder boss than ghuun tho

marble cipher
#

Didn't raid mythic in Legion, well, I did, but only in Antorus

#

I heared avatar was aweful if not stacked with rogues

dense cradle
#

only if you progged super early

tight tree
#

I honestly think that any PvE-er could greatly benefit from playing arena at least a little. Teaching to kick, pay attention to positioning, NO BACKPEDALING, at least small amount of thinking outside the box

dense cradle
#

like top 20 world

empty terrace
#

Just like ghuun

dense cradle
#

7 blades

#

4 un nerfed soaks

#

xd

tight tree
#

Actually i take backpedaling part back, fuckton of them in arena too lol

dense cradle
#

theres 0 reason to backpedal in pve

#

except tanking

empty terrace
#

Backpaddle is fine in pve and pvp

primal crypt
#

I vackpedal

#

Backpedal

#

All the time

tight tree
#

Yeah i have backpedal unbound on every toon except tanks

empty terrace
#

Same if i have to move boss as tank or move from a mechanic as dps

primal crypt
#

Dps should never backpedal

#

Never

dense cradle
#

doesnt happen in pvp at higher ratings tho

tight tree
#

Tanks benefit greatly from strafing

empty terrace
#

If the ring is just behind u

tight tree
#

backpedal only good if you need to move boss inch or 2

dense cradle
#

the most stark difference

tight tree
#

dangerous to strafe with hitboxes being hot mess now

dense cradle
#

is healers who only raid

#

vs arena healers

#

0 situational awareness on the former usually

sick sentinel
#

What ur saying is

#

Playing a specific aspect of the game, that isn't predictable

tight tree
#

Нуы

sick sentinel
#

Can cause a player to not have their head up their ass?

tight tree
#

Yes*

empty terrace
#

Guess i tell method not to bkpaddle then

primal crypt
#

Нуы

empty terrace
#

Cant do that as dps

tight tree
#

Very rarely moving slower > moving faster, and only for tanks. If Method raiders backpedal, they could do even better if they stop ;P

#

Unless there is specific mechanic that punishes fast movement

dense cradle
#

need to find that ss

empty terrace
#

Yikes

junior igloo
#

It's not that it's better, but it's often equal

dense cradle
#

where cayna says method might lose to limit next tier

#

if theres a tank dependent fight

junior igloo
#

Why turn 90°, strafe, turn 90° again, when you can just press 1 button instead?

empty terrace
#

^

dense cradle
#

nothing will change my mind about healing raids being the easiest shit ever though

sick sentinel
#

Because then that means we have to click or abilities

#

Like we are noobs

#

Obviously

dense cradle
#

and best tanks are often dps mains

empty terrace
#

Like me pogu

dense cradle
#

or at least know how to play their dps specs competently

gaunt dawn
#

The worst tanks are the ones who exclusively play tank

#

Is the more accurate statement

empty terrace
#

Sco Omegalul

dense cradle
#

or

#

healer mains who sometimes play shitty ranged

#

then put them on melee

#

omegalul

empty terrace
#

Sounds like all the ppl that reroll in my guild

#

Oof

tight tree
#

Its not that i cannot DPS, but guild want me to tank every time 😉

#

I play DPS and healer in arena tho

oblique garnet
#

playing dps in raids is boring tho

dense cradle
#

yeah

#

then theres the people who say

#

"i only play tanks since vanilla/bc"

empty terrace
#

Have yoy ever tanked a raid then

#

You*

#

😂

tight tree
#

always good to have other role's perspective

#

Cant be good tank if you do not know the pain of melee DPS trying to follow boss positioned poorly

guy who tanked keys for me was like

#

"i tank raid sometimes when i dont trust anyone else in there to tank"

Thats why u dont pug raids

Gotta pug on alts

Cause most of those ppl bought the game got a free 110 boost and lvled with no knowlegde

#

i want ghuun chest on my alt

but holy crap doing ghuun with randos

w-what's wrong with tanks that only play tanks.... smdh....

dense cradle

can we go back to argus where half the raid can be dead

If they cant kill mother in first room

sick sentinel
#

Won't lie, I do miss one of my old guilds

#

Just couldnt stand the GM

#

Me and the tank had the best synergy

#

@sick sentinel should have asked him to leave with you

#

Nah he was loyal to it

#

Plus I'm not one to get buddy buddy with many people

#

okay

#

It's the main reason I don't a have team for m+, I have a lot of dps/healers add me but I just don't invite/group up with them

#

I've seen too many times from being with a lot of guild what happens when u get buddy buddy with people

#

Never works out

signal plover
#

Yeah it's rly tough having a consistent grp to do keys with on a whim and raid n shit

#

Idk how I tolerate it

sick sentinel
#

Oh I'm just fucking weird, a lot of people want me to do keys with them but if I need to do a key, I refuse to invite then

#

Not because they are bad, but just because

#

I'm too afraid to do keys

#

I hate the dungeons

I don't want to walk into tol dagor

sweet kettle
#

what are you guys thinking about the alchemy trinket for prot

marble cipher
#

I'm using it at the moment, I like it (allthough I don't really have many trinkets to choose from anyway)

sweet kettle
#

i have rezans 370 and 365 howlers with socket

#

dont know though the strength and the extra healing from pot seems pretty good

sick sentinel
#

I would stick with rezan and alchy

#

At least m+

sweet kettle
#

yeah rezan is too good

sick sentinel
#

If raiding howler would be better imo

sand egret
#

id drop howler myself

sweet kettle
#

gonna make it and try it then

sand egret
#

i cant stand the trinket personally

sweet kettle
#

that vers it gives is some pretty poggers

sand egret
#

its nice but the cd is 2 min and the on-use itself is awkward as fuck

#

aka not consistent so there’s a whole placement component. overall I dont like running one (i even have a 395 i refuse to use)

cobalt trellis
#

starting to love that one, hoping for some azerite with BoM-trait

sick sentinel
#

The vers is good if u care about sharing it with ur group

#

I tend to try to pop it when I'm far enough to get the full 1k + from vers

#

Where u get that trinket

cobalt trellis
#

mine? think it was from tortollan emissary

sick sentinel
#

Give me it

#

I require more mastery

marble cipher
#

I'm using that one as well

#

Got a 370 vial as well, but I need to check which of the two syncs up better with Avatar, for now I'm just using Feather + Alchemist trinket

cobalt trellis
#

feather with 1 min is always slightly behind avatar for me... avatar tends to be between 45-55 seconds (might be feelycrafty)

marble cipher
#

Yeah, I honnestly haven't checked, I just have it macro'd to Avatar, so it could be that I'm missing quite a bit of usage because of that

cobalt trellis
#

its not 20 sec duration so i still pop it couple of seconds after avatar pops, still fine for me

#

i have it both on a single button + binded with avatar

marble cipher
#

That's a much more clever way of doing it, I'm usually way too lazy for on use trinkets like that, so I just macro it and never look back

#

Which is why I actually prefer equip trinkets

sacred bear
#

is gorefiends gonna be relevant in Bfd
Not sure whether to still work on Blood on the side
or if i should work on a prot warrior

cobalt trellis
#

whats gorefiend again? 😮

#

i mean i only know this one as the boss in hfc?

sacred bear
#

gorefiends grasp, the DK mass grip

cobalt trellis
#

oh ok nvm

#

i have no idea wether there is some kind of add fight, where mass grip really helps (in a way like zekvoz)

#

what is you co-tank classes choice?

sacred bear
#

vengeance lol

sand egret
#

what an awkward question to ask in prot lol

cobalt trellis
#

so in this case youd still have chain sigil

#

gore fiends is a skill for ppl who try and get hit w/o shields tbh

Just stomp them so they're dead

it literally is reverse stagger

and why im bringing it up

it's so clear the health regen is most likely a typo

always funny to read comments on wowhead though

Zandalari have a 4s 100% heal

HORDE BIAS..... BLIZZARD YOUVE DONE IT AGAIN

health regen and the armor proc are most likely typo's, not possible otherwise 😄

It's hilarious

they will 100% not have a 100% heal on a 1.5 m cd

#

I mean taking numbers on PTR seriously is a joke

astral crystal
#

that's just asinine to believe it could be like that

marble cipher
#

"yes, I've got an extra life every 90 seconds, and you?" 😄

modern brook
#

the concept of the ability is what i care about

#

putting reverse stagger on a racial seems really good

astral crystal
#

UNLESS it's interrupted by damage or something

sick sentinel
#

It needs to be capped

astral crystal
#

in that case it'd make sense

sick sentinel
#

Like

#

"can only occur once every x seconds"

I'd assume

#

KT human racial is going to be opiss though

currently it has no such modifier

2% healing on damage taken

i mean 2% over 4 seconds without reducing intial hit

My favorite M+ pug is +11; 1.5k io group lead by a 700 io rag hunter

ionic fern
#

On a +16 freehold avg hit was 13k..meaning that you will heal for 260 over 4s per melee..

My least favorite trend is rounding up io

Like no you aren't 1k you're 950

modern brook
#

My least favorite trend is rounding down io tbh

#

1204 - you're not 1.2k

oblique garnet
#

im 1895 can i round that up to 1900 ? Weep

modern brook
#

def got that alot

sick sentinel
#

No

oblique garnet
#

fuck you i do whatever i want

ionic fern
#

I'm 2k cause 1.7 is closer to 2k than it is to 1k

sick sentinel
#

I mean yeah tbh

#

It's 5 away

#

But when it's like 40

#

That's like 4 dungeons

modern brook
#

the difference between 1895 and 1900 is a lot less than the difference between 995 and 1000 though

#

like the timing on your chest doesnt start making a sizable difference until you start breaking 13-14+'s

sick sentinel
#

Anyway

#

5 difference isn't the point I mean

#

It's people at 943 who list "1k+ only"

#

Which on a technical level is fine

#

But when they're using it to imply their own io it isn't

ionic fern
#

Their key..they got the power.:(

modern brook
#

very external locus of control of you

#

Its ur application; you got the power man

ionic fern
#

I mean..if you apply for a job they set the standards

cosmic cargo
#

the heal is probably applied to damage before DR so it'll be basically equally strong on everything

#

or close to equal

modern brook
#

re kul tirans, it would heal off stagger hits, thats my point

#

as written at least

cosmic cargo
#

nah doubt it'd double dip

#

prob just pre-stagger damage

#

but who knows

modern brook
#

ptr regeneratin is currently 100% over 4 seconds doesnt break on taking damage

#

so

cosmic cargo
#

yeah but if it's pre-mitigation damage it'll only work on the damage before it goes into the stagger pool

uneven mason
#

pre mitigation damage for a tank

cosmic cargo
#

same way that versa and armor or any other DR only affect damage before it goes into the stagger pool

uneven mason
#

would be sizeable amount of healing

cosmic cargo
#

yeah

uneven mason
#

like pre mit damage on a warrior

#

if its post mitigation

#

thats uh

#

well pretty much useless

cosmic cargo
#

basically

uneven mason
#

about as useful as the old trolls "you continue 5% Of your HP regeneration in combat"

#

which turned out to be like, 5 health every 6 seconds at level 60

daring marlin
#

Not gonna be blocking while you’re regeneratin’. 😃

modern brook
#

heroic leap ->regeneratin

#

ggwp

cosmic cargo
#

if you mean the zandalari shit guilford it works like blooddrinker so...

#

can still parry/dodge (99% sure block too)

daring marlin
#

You know that for sure or you’re talking shit?

#

I didn’t see any text like this on the tooltip.

So by definition it’s not like blooddrinker.

Prot warrior was fine all of Uldir

final mist

We were quite good, if you could play well.

uneven mason

Yeah I Know

gaunt dawn

You just sucked without gear

uneven mason

more meant alpha

gaunt dawn
#

Dh has a similar problem

uneven mason
#

actually we were fine even without super gear

#

we just needed to have the laser focus of a razerblade unicorn

modern brook
#

Hmmm

#

🤔

#

I only had the razor focus of a laser blade unicorn

sand egret
#

is this a razorblade in the shape of unicorn?

modern brook
#

no wonder i hated raiding so much

uneven mason
#

its a unicorn made from laserblades

sand egret
#

or a unicorn weilding a razorblade

#

oh, so its sentient?

#

or is the artist focused to create such a work?

uneven mason
#

no

#

its a myth

made of light

well now that's just silly

Sometimes you guys make me worry.

uneven mason

Sal

#

you played paladin

sand egret
#

I'm just here to get the details Sal

modern brook

No sal this is prot warrior related

#

its ok

final mist

I didn't play Warrior at all and I was still better than you Mac xd

sand egret
#

OH

uneven mason
#

I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.

daring marlin
#

wow taxic

modern brook
#

:oof:

uneven mason
#

You played paladin

gaunt dawn
#

Imagine thinking that warrior was hard to play

astral crystal
#

🤡

uneven mason
#

imagine thinking they're not going to let horde have another OP racial

daring marlin
#

imagine thinking any tank was harder than others

#

muh snowflake syndrome

uneven mason
#

Well Guilford

final mist
#

WoW as a whole is pretty easy

#

Let's go play a real MMO, like FFXIV

uneven mason
#

we have documented evidene that BRM is indeed

#

easier than the others.

gaunt dawn
#

Not really

sand egret
#

Oh Sal with the jokes 😃

gaunt dawn
#

It's the same as the others

daring marlin
#

idk

gaunt dawn
#

The 'hardest' would be paladin

final mist
#

You're mistaking ease of play with forgiveness of the class

uneven mason
#

You can't survive without pressing buttons as the other tanks

daring marlin
#

look at neo exdeath and tell me WoW has a more mechanically demanding fight

#

lul

sand egret
#

true, living with the fact that you're playing a Paladin is, in fact, difficulty

final mist
#

BRM is more forgiving, the other tanks aren't

uneven mason
#

BrM you can spam whatever spam button you want and live.

I’m trying to build my m+ raider IO score. I’m pretty new to m+ since I only started playing wow in September. What is the better way to push my score. Clearing out keys a level at a time while trying to time them (do all dungeons +2, then +3 working my way up etc) OR just jumping straight into higher keys (8,9,10?) and hoping the bull doesn’t throw me off the saddle?
My ilvl is 381.

#

I mean m+tank score not raider

sand egret
#

Ride yo key

uneven mason
#

I remember Sal deciding to pla Paladin

#

because he was like "Warriors are shit"

daring marlin
#

then imagine neo exdeath with 20 people

gaunt dawn
#

BrM is easy sure. But you're a burden to the raid team if you play it wrong

daring marlin
#

omegalul

uneven mason
#

LORD SCO HATH DECREE

gaunt dawn
#

As you require 1.5 healers for 1 tank

cosmic cargo
#

pala was better in uldir

uneven mason
#

and then it turns out, we're fine

#

Yeah I'm just being a smartass

gaunt dawn
#

Imagine listening to a tank ranking

final mist
#

I may be misremembering, sure, but I was under the impression I was playing Paladin because I enjoyed it more, and I was pretty adamant about the fact that Warriors were pretty good

uneven mason
#

Utility > Mitigation

final mist
#

Idk, might be just me

silk moat
#

My key is a 10 from DPS

cosmic cargo
#

also warrior with IP on the global

#

yikes

uneven mason
#

I always thought you were a bear tbh

cosmic cargo
#

rather shoot my foot

silk moat
#

But tanking is so diff obv

sand egret
#

@silk moat most important thing is to learn the dungeons well enough to know how to optimize your runs (pulls etc). I'd ride your key for a bit to get the lay of the land but at your ilvl you should be able to get it up pretty fast

daring marlin
#

paladin is pretty fun @final mist I just hate AW/Seraphim/HotP on the gcd

gaunt dawn
#

I mean IP is still a shit button to press (thematically)

sand egret
#

have a group to help you/run with helps a lot

daring marlin
#

feelsbfaman

gaunt dawn
#

Hotp feels worse

silk moat
#

Thanks blade song

uneven mason
#

IP Feels like pressing nothing now that it isn't on the GCD

#

like batting at air

final mist
#

Unless you have a solid group, Morg, pugginng is probably your best bet

cosmic cargo
#

idk i didn't have as much of a problem with HoTP

uneven mason
#

feels worse off GCD

cosmic cargo
#

pala has more dead GCDs though

final mist
#

Learn the dungeons in a smaller key and work your way up as you get more comfortable

cosmic cargo
#

or nearly dead

final mist
#

Warrior relies in part on knowing and expecting incoming damage patterns

gaunt dawn
#

Hotp on gcd is the main reason I don't play paladin as much

daring marlin
#

I just miss legion prot pally

sick sentinel

Knowing routs and pulls (what comes in them etc) > gear/spec etc..

HFC prot pally was better then legion

Hi warriors! ones wielders of the burning plate of the worldbreaker. Is there a way in BfA to mog the shield but not the weapon?

Out of the last 3 xpacs wod was by far the best for raiding

No, artifacts are linked

Not vengance

hell yes brother

MoP warriors

"Heard you needed an interrupt, I have 7"

daring marlin

ToT Paladin was amazing

prot that is

stone cloud

Member when you had abilities from your other specs while tank spec?

sand egret
#

i feel like that was MoP in general

#

just "All the abilities!"

stone cloud
#

Them were the days

uneven mason
#

I remember loving prot in MoP and hating fury and arms because of the CS windows

#

and the buildup with HS

#

that last iteration of HS made me sad

stone cloud

RIP heroic strike... nice forget

Nvr forget*

uneven mason
stone cloud

It and probably the most iconic warrior ability will be back once classic is live ❤

Why is there no sunder icon o.O

ESPECIALLY ASHRAN

Yeah

looking forward to doing WG again

that was probably the best PVP ever

Splatoon?

bingo

(but seriously this week isn't super bad generally speaking. It can stink for a few pulls but you can always bring a displacement in your group as a failsafe. RoP, Grip, Typhoon, Thundertstorm, etc.)

sick sentinel
#

i loved ashran

#

it was so fun

#

i had like all my characters fully geared with pvp

#

gear

#

conquest and i would go around wrecking nobs

#

ops

noble solar
#

how many stacks in greater sparing dummy at Skyhold can a geared tank take?

#

i want to know how bad im doing, or rather good, i managed to survive (without LS or SW) up to 5 stacks

jovial verge
#

with bracers in legion you could get that mofo above 100, big enough to tank both of the sparring dummies at once 😦

noble solar
#

im 370 ilvl tank

#

anyone cares to try and report how he did?

keen spire
#

5 stacks seems low

#

but Idk how they've scaled it

#

I'll check when I get home

noble solar
#

thanks, just make sure to not use LS or SW

uneven mason
#

Y not use our toolkit?

#

I mean, LS is a regular part of our rotation

noble solar
#

use your toolkit, dont use long CDs which are 2-3 min long

uneven mason
#

SW would be the only real major CD

#

LS is 55seconds if you're playing appropriately

noble solar
#

i wanna test "tankiness"

#

i get your point

uneven mason
#

its also a large portio nof our AM uptime

#

testing prots tankyness by literally just standing still and doing nothing 🤔

main vault
#

I just got 8 without trying

#

So 5 is definately low

and Nexii is bad at warrior

i suck tits i guess

mind me asking

uneven mason

fuzzy and prone to failing at major mechanics ?

noble solar
#

why did you reroll the 2nd worst tank

#

from the worst (bear)

uneven mason
#

🤔 he isn't playing VDH

main vault
#

If you think War is the 2nd worst you are special

uneven mason
#

Or paladin

#

or BDK

main vault
#

Paladin is pgood

uneven mason
#

Paladin is cheesy

#

but yeah they're all pretty good

main vault
#

Besides

#

No real tank only plays one class

noble solar

things chanegd from 8.0?

uneven mason

I mean, I might put Bear above BDK right now

noble solar

i just came back after quiting

uneven mason
#

Warriors were never bad

main vault
#

Imagine being stuck in beta

uneven mason
#

PEOPLE were bad

#

but warriors were like

#

pretty amazing on the tankyness front

noble solar
#

they were never bad, but relative to other tanks they were

uneven mason
#

and then we got buffed 3x

#

No, we were punishing

dusk locust
#

warriors were always fine they were just hard to play

uneven mason
#

as in - if the player was bad (me) then the tank was bad

main vault
#

You are trolling at this point

uneven mason
#

I wouldn't say hard, just more prone to fuckups

sick sentinel
stark sage

the tankiness metric has been fairly balanced all xpac, its the special utility category and self healing that we lack

uneven mason

rather more prone to dying from fuckups

they were fine, other tanks like VDH and DKs were raping M+

What Keladan said

#

VDH in m+

Good meme

uneven mason

#1 warrior in M+ right now I think is a prot warrior

so much changed from 8.0?

uneven mason

not really

sick sentinel

We need mob movement utility

there have been a couple prots in the top20 m+ dungeon leaderboards

just community perception

#1 warrior in M+ right now I think is a prot warrior

I meant what I said Nexxii

because its true

the #1 warrior - is prot

the #1 tank is also a warrior

at least, yesterday it was

yeah @uneven mason last week there was a top run with a warrior

but that was one specific run

uneven mason

#

it was only for like

cosmic cargo
#

it's not just 1 run tbh

uneven mason
#

a few hours

noble solar
#

the fact that there is 1 prot war at the top doesnt mean much tbh, but the proportion or the % of warriors at the top 50

cosmic cargo
#

it's many dungeons

#

KR and UR for example

uneven mason
#

but warriors are on the front page

cosmic cargo
#

ToS doesn't count

stark sage
#

yeh warriors are really good right now

cosmic cargo
#

cause ToS was lul last week

noble solar
#

cool

uneven mason
#

it just happens that most of the hard up teams were using BDK

noble solar
#

how do you get to 10 stacks?

uneven mason
#

and since BDK didn't really get nerfed in a pertinent way

#

they're still using BDKs

cosmic cargo
#

because the better players already have geared BDKs and the xp

main vault

Skill usually

uneven mason
#

But Jdot

noble solar

spaming shield block and if its on CD ignore pain isnt doing the trick i guess

uneven mason

i don't think divine for example has a warr alt

literally it means Sco must've given a blessing

From a GM view

his rankings dont gather enough data or have enough critical though put into before being released

its a conglomerate

is that their actual discord?

Method is like any other sports team

the guild is the business

it is

uneven mason

they have international recruiters , sponsors, talent scouts

The guild IS the business

And fuck him that he thinks that way

No, it isnt

uneven mason

without continuing to be #1 do you think they'll continue to be a business?

tbh the guild is the smallest part of the business at this point

The business wouldnt be shit without the guild

the MDI teams, the PVP teams, the streams
